Do have a ST in the Landsdown and so do my kids and have seen around 6 away games this seasons but as I was not there today I am not allowed an opinion. Apologies, I assumed you were actually at the game, "home" being Ashton Gate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With regards to SOD, I compare the current football to SOD's reign. I thought the football under Pulis was far worse than SOD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Numero Uno Posted January 7, 2017 Report Share Posted January 7, 2017 Not overly bothered about today as three newbies making their debut and it takes time to bed in to a new team. However, look at the run of games we have coming up soon and it's obvious we need to get points on the board in the next three or four games starting next Saturday. Fail to do that and I cannot see where Johnson goes from there. Whatever way you look at it Johnson has made a total mess of things since October. Ashton and Lansdown have backed him and it's time for him to get us out of the mess he has put us in with his constant tinkering of the team and resultant failure to address the issues we have clearly had in the first half of games which he just seemed to brush off.

baz4jazz Posted January 7, 2017 Report Share Posted January 7, 2017 Would that be the Lansdown Stand at Ashton Gate stadium? Named after proud Bristol City supporter Steve Lansdown? The one I'd have to walk along Marina Dolman Way to get into? Next to the Atyeo stand, named after a club legend? Flanked by the South Stand, full of Bristol City banners? To watch a team called Bristol City wearing red shirts with Bristol City on their badge? Opposite the Dolman Stand named after another club legend? The one with the red seats? That one? Yeah you're right, nothing to do with our club at all. That's all very true as far as it goes, but you have forgotten something - the partial takeover of our stadium by the wretched blue signage and the rugby markings all over the pitch when we are watching a football game! It's a shame because it does rather spoil the traditional red and white of the ground which, as the home of BCFC long before rugby came on the scene when I go to watch my team, I expect to see a red and white background and ONLY football markings on the pitch. Otherwise I agree with all you've said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the hour of need for many City fans, with the club in turmoil on and off pitch, I was hoping I'd found somebody to guide us out of the current horror show that is being served up by Bristol Sport. With boos ringing round the rugby ground at full time today I thought there was no hope. That was until your post. But then you've said there's nothing we can do. What now @BS3_RED, what now?

GJS Posted January 7, 2017 Report Share Posted January 7, 2017 3 hours ago, BS3_RED said: So I am an idiot because A- I dare challenge LJ? or B- I dare challenge SL? So you think that LJ is doing a brilliant job then. Well if you think that then there is only one idiot and it is not me. I agree that my views on AG are subjective but I for one have always viewed the move to Bristol City Holdings and the recent inclusion of Bristol Rugby as a bad thing. An idiot, dolt, dullard or (archaically) mome is a person perceived to be lacking intelligence, or someone who acts in a self-defeating or significantly counterproductive way. Along with the similar terms moron, imbecile, and cretin, the word archaically referred to the intellectually disabled, but have all since gained specialized meanings in modern times. An idiot is said to be idiotic, and to suffer from idiocy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GJS Posted January 7, 2017 Report Share Posted January 7, 2017 5 minutes ago, Bullbag said: Why? Currently we aren't good enough, and signs are we aren't going to significantly improve. Only hope for me is bringing in a manager who knows how to set up a team to go out with a positive attitude and try and win a game of football. This isn't happening, and quite frankly at the start of the season we were less than impressive and riding our luck (with the exception of Fulham). I agree currently we are in a bad run of form but football is about confidence and I trust once we get a couple of wins under our belts this will change. To say our only hope is to sack the manager is quite ridiculous. We can also hope that if we keep him he get enough points to keep him up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sixtyseconds Posted January 7, 2017 Report Share Posted January 7, 2017 "The stadium and Bristol Sport are never mentioned when things are going well on the pitch. Funny that." Can remember a seven eight pager on Bristol Sports brand theft before a season started. Then more when City were, yes that's right winning with Steve Cotterill's red 3-5-2 machine. And now.

Fiale Posted January 7, 2017 Report Share Posted January 7, 2017 His contract extension would only mean if anyone comes in for him they need to pay us more money, as for Lee in his contract there would be a agreement of a set payoff if we should ever part ways - so it would probably not having bearing on that anyway - I suspect as others have mentioned it was more of a marker to any grumblings by some more senior players... the club back him, so beware...

Terrible,slow negative football.we made a very average league one side look ok..For the first time I'm angry.****in fuming. Erm, they are the in-form side in L1. Haven't lost since Nov 12th.

No, like you I thought the build-up play was far too slow and we squandered what chances we had. However, there were some signs of promise.

LondonBristolian Posted January 7, 2017 Report Share Posted January 7, 2017 5 hours ago, ChippenhamRed said: What is pathetic is calling anyone who is able to identify any sort of positive a "happy clapper". Such a tired and overused phrase. No one is overjoyed with a 0-0 draw with Fleetwood but that doesn't mean there isn't anything positive to say. I have much more of a problem with those who seem to revel in our struggles far more than they do any success. Indeed. People have every right to criticise - and there've certainly been no shortage of reasons to do so in recent weeks - but it really comes to something when fans criticise other fans for the apparent crime of supporting the team...

stokes7 Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 I find it funny that a lot of people before the game were saying didn't care about result, that it was all about bedding the new players in, well I missed yesterday's game but it seems as if that is exactly what was done.You can't expect everything to click straight away all of the time, need to remember they have probably only had one or two training sessions with the boys, we didn't lose sounds as if there were some good pluses so let's move on to Cardiff now and all get behind the team.Remember Cardiff is where are bad run pretty much started so let's end it against them this week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My worry now would be this, if results do not change how many weeks/games does Lee now get because its a new team , with new player etc. If Lee is in charge then I hope he turns it around (cos at the end of the day its my and our club and we dont want to be in L1 next year) but if results do not turn around we could already be seriously in the shit before we then make a change, which no doubt would be a panic signing or accepting relegation and another rebuild. .

Marlborough Red Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 Awful performance again at the Gate . Lack of pace and ambition frightening against lower league opposition. I blame the Rugby branding in and around the ground and Rugby markings on the pitch for making the players believe that a Forward Pass is not allowed.
